The Chevalier van Flewyck, of
Louyain, has just perfected, after
thirty y-eight years of labor, machine
for recording all music extemporized

worked by means of electricity. and he
has been assisted in the mechanical de-
tails by M. Kermis. an engineer of

"A tunnel is projected, to be bored
under Gray's Peak, in the Rocky Noun
tains. 1t will be placed 4,441 feet be-
low the summit of the mountain, will
be $4,000 feet long, and will give direct
communication between the valleys in

800 miles in the transmontane dis
tance.-Sdp Francisco Chronicle.
in 1880 nine-tenths Of the popula-
tion of Massachusetts, were engaged in
agriculture, while in 1880 only one
eighth were occupied with that class Of
work. In the great States of New York
and Pennsylvania four-fifths Of the peo-
pie are not engaged in agriculture, and
in Illinois, the greatest agricultural
State in the Union, less than one-haf
of the population is occupied with
farming. Boston Herald
The difficulty of sighting rifles in
the dark in warfarehas been ingeniously
overcome by the use of luminous paint
A small luminous bead is clipped on to
the rifle over the foresight, and another
over the rear sight when used at night
in reply to an enemy's fire. forming
two luminous sights. The British War
Office authorities have had some Of
these sights under trial for the past six
months, and have now given their first
order for them. .,...
"A new method of manufacturing
car-wheels has been tested at Wilkes
barre, Pa, with satisfactory results.
BY the old method three men could
make only eighteen wheels per day Of
twelve hours. BY the new process the
same number of men can turn out
perfect wheel every minute. or 720 per
day. One of the principal features of
the new method is the use of steel
core, instead of one. of sand, in casting
the wheel. The core is removed by
knocking out a center key, leaving the
hole perfectly true and ready to put
upon the axle at once. without dressing
OF boring. Pittsburgh Post.

RIGHT BREATHING.
The Serious Danger of Taking Cold Air
Directly Into the Lungs.

Directly Into the Lungs.
Breathing through the open mouth is
praetieed for the most part only by
.'ciyilized' men. The aborigines of
our country, and savage tribes else
where, always keep the mouth tightly
closed and breathe through the nostlils.
Nature is wiser teacher than fashion,
for the primitive method of breathing
is the best one on every principle Of
hygiene. There is danger of severe
injury to the bronchial tubes and to
the delicate vessels of the lungs, in
passing from the warm air of a house
to an atmosphere in the neighborhood
of zero, If the air is taken directly into
